Better Banks updated debit cards

Debit Card Management

Take Full Control of Your Card

Pick a card, any card

Your Debit Card has advanced Debit Card controls with Card Management. You can switch your card on and off, receive alerts about certain purchase types, and block transactions at restaurants, gas stations, or an array of other vendor types. You can even set a custom spending limit. And you decide when you get notified.

Travel Notice

Submit a temporary Travel Notice for your account when you go on vacation so the bank knows you'll be making purchases outside of your regular area.  

Lock Card

Instantly deactivate a card, denying transactions on the selected card. Recurring payments may continue, and credits and deposits will still be allowed.

Alerts and protections

You now have a wealth of settings based on spending amounts, transaction types, merchant types, and more, allowing you to control when you get alerted or decline a specific transaction.

MERCHANT TYPES

You can set notify or block controls on transactions identified as coming from specific merchant types.

    TRANSACTION TYPES

    You can set notify or block controls on transactions of specific types.

    SPENDING LIMITS

    The Spending Limits menu allows you to set both individual transaction and monthly spending limits.

    NOTIFICATION SETTINGS

    You can set preferred notification methods for both blocked transactions and notification alerts. In-app messages will be selected for both by default, but you may enable email or text.

    Digital Banking offers you convenient control over your debit card. Once your Debit Card has been activated, you'll be able to access these new features under Card Management.
